Official skill for the MobileBuildMCP CLI. Use when doing iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS/visionOS work (build, test, run, debug, log, UI automation).
# MobileBuildMCP CLI Use MobileBuildMCP tools via the `mobilebuildmcp` executable instead of raw `xcodebuild`, `xcrun`, or `simctl`. ## Step 1: Ensure the CLI Exists Check availability: ```bash mobilebuildmcp --help ``` If missing, install with one of: ```bash brew tap getsentry/xcodebuildmcp brew install mobilebuildmcp ``` ```bash npm install -g mobilebuildmcp@latest ``` Re-check after install: ```bash mobilebuildmcp --help ``` ## Step 2: Use Help-First Discovery Discover workflows and arguments from the CLI itself: ```bash mobilebuildmcp --help mobilebuildmcp tools mobilebuildmcp <workflow> --help mobilebuildmcp <workflow> <tool> --help ``` Use this discovery path instead of memorizing static tool lists. ## Step 3: Keep Execution Minimal - Choose the smallest command sequence that satisfies the request. - Prefer direct workflow commands over manual multi-step chains unless explicitly requested. - For simulator run intent, prefer the combined `build-and-run` command. - Do not chain `build` then `build-and-run` unless explicitly requested. ## Capability Overview `mobilebuildmcp` supports: - simulator and device build/test/run - debugging and log capture - UI automation - project discovery and scaffolding - session defaults and workflow configuration ## Exit Criteria - CLI presence is verified or installation steps are provided. - Commands are discovered via `--help` / `tools`. - Session defaults are checked before first build/run/test action.
